Era lindaza la china
Y era bonito mi pago
Y era linda aquella vida
Vivida allí entre sus brazos
Pero las hembras, amigo
Tienen en el cuerpo el diablo
Y el diablo se vino un día
Montando un caballo zaino
Y mi china, compañero
Juyó de mi pobre rancho
Yo les confié el perseguirlos
A las patas de mi zaino
Y en abras de aquella sierra
Les di alcance a los malvados
Cuchillo contra cuchillo
Ahí nomás nos atacamos
Nos herimos varias veces
Pero estuve mal del brazo
Se me fue la vista en sangre
Y allí quedé entre los pastos
Y aura le digo, aparcero
Que me tira la querencia
Más no quiero, he d’ir al pago
Porque ya me da vergüenza
Ando juido como un perro
Relamiéndome las pellas
Estuve mal pa'l cuchillo
Y perdí aquella pelea
Pero usted no sabe amigo
Lo que tira la querencia
